Nottingham Forest vs Wolverhampton Wanderers match preview
East Midlands meets Black County with both teams seeking to climb further away from the relegation zone.
Of the two, Nottingham Forest’s position is marginally more perilous, kicking off 16th, three places but just one point below their visitors.
Last time out, Forest were beaten 2-1 by Newcastle in a dramatic Friday night encounter.
Emmanuel Bonaventure Dennis gave the Reds a first half lead, picking up on a loose back-pass before applying an impudent dink finish.
However, Newcastle equalised in first half injury time, before winning it in second half stoppage time via a penalty, conceded by a distraught Moussa Niakhaté.
This defeat means Steve Cooper’s side are now winless in six and, having looked relatively safe not so long ago, are bang in trouble again.
A fortnight ago, Wolves were beaten 4-2 by Leeds in a thriller at Molineux, with Jonny scoring a goal of the season contender, before being sent off shortly after.
Julen Lopetegui was furious with the refereeing in that match, but needs to focus on his own team as they seek to stay clear of the drop zone.
Forest have won just one of their last ten meetings with Wolves, but did knock them out of the Carabao Cup on penalties back in January.
Will the majority inside the City Ground be celebrating after this one too?
Nottingham Forest team news
It was confirmed on Thursday that Chris Wood will miss the rest of the season injury, joining Dean Henderson, Scott McKenna, Willy Boly, Cheikhou Kouyaté, Taiwo Awoniyi and others in the treatment room.
Without Wood, André Ayew led the line in the last game, but Emmanuel Bonaventure Dennis seems a more natural fit.
Talisman Brennan Johnson missed both of Wales’ matches this week, but is hopeful of being fit for this one.
Gustavo Scarpa came off the bench a fortnight ago, having returned from Brazil where he was attempting to recoup over £1 million he’d lost in a cryptocurrency scam.
At the back, Moussa Niakhaté made his first appearance since August against Newcastle and, despite giving away the decisive penalty, could keep his place.
Predicted XI (4-3-3): Navas; Aurier, Felipe, Niakhaté, Lodi; Freuler, Shelvey, Scarpa; Gibbs-White, Johnson, Bonaventure Dennis.
Wolverhampton Wanderers team news
Jonny is suspended, having been sent off against Leeds, but Matheus Nunes’ late red card in that one, shown to him as a substitute, has been rescinded.
Rayan Aït-Nouri is likely to deputise for Jonny at left-back, although Hugo Bueno is also an option.
Matheus Cunha’s scrappy deflected goal in that one was the first goal scored by a Wolves centre-forward since 13 February last year.
He could come in up front, replacing Raúl Jiménez, who played just 28 minutes for Mexico during the break.
Rúben Neves would be suspended for Wolves’ next two games, against Chelsea and Brentford, if booked here.
Predicted XI (4-3-3): José Sá; Semedo, Dawson, Kilman, Aït-Nouri; Lemina, Neves, Nunes; Podence, Neto, Cunha.
